441 Unexpected Accident

More than a dozen people gathered around the two tables and ate to their hearts’ content.

The group spent time together until the afternoon. If not for the fact that Ruyi and the others had to rush back before dawn, they would have played until night time.

Night fell.

Xiaoguo lay on the bed and closed her eyes to rest. Google search ƒr𝒆𝑒𝔀e𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃𝐞𝑙. c𝗼m

At this moment, she was the only one in the room. Jiang Danhe had brought the two children to take a bath. She had just taken her bath a while ago.

Not long after, Jiang Danhe came into the room. When he saw the woman with her eyes closed, he subconsciously lightened his footsteps.

Since he was trained in martial arts, his footsteps were light to begin with. In addition to that, he had deliberately lightened his footsteps, therefore, he did not make a single sound when he entered the room.

Xiaoguo wasn’t sleeping. She was just resting with her eyes closed. Her relaxed nerves suddenly tensed up because she felt something rubbing against her hair.

Instinctively, she opened her eyes and saw a handsome face with a serious expression.

The owner of the handsome face paused and asked softly, “Did I wake you?”

Xiaoguo smiled and shook her head. “I wasn’t sleeping at all.”

Jiang Danhe continued to dry her hair. “Didn’t you say that wet hair will make one fall sick? Doesn’t that apply to you too?”

The concern in the other party’s voice was obvious. Xiaoguo’s heart warmed up when she heard that. “I’ll remember it the next time.”

“You’ve said this before.”

“Really? Hehe.”

Seeing that this was not working, Xiaoguo went into another mode—feigning ignorance.

Jiang Danhe smiled and changed two towels before he managed to dry her hair completely.

Xiaoguo waited for him to put down the towels before she sat up. There were no signs of the two boys in the house. She asked curiously, “Where are the children?”

“They wanted to soak in the tub by themselves, so they chased me out.”

Speaking of this, he felt very helpless. He had worked so hard to fill up their buckets, but in the end, he was driven out by them shortly after. This was a perfect example of killing the donkey when the grinding is done.

“Huh? Really? I thought you were going to take a bath with them.”

Xiaoguo laughed and patted the space beside her, indicating for him to sit down. “Then you’ll have to bathe alone later.”

It was such a cold day. It was nice to hide under the covers as early as possible. Xiaoguo was feeling a little sorry for Jiang Danhe.

“It’s fine.” Jiang Danhe sat beside her and seemed to have thought of something. His tone changed and he said teasingly, “If you feel sorry for me, why don’t you bathe with me?”

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

Xiaoguo blushed and watched awkwardly as the man moved closer and closer. She didn’t dare to look around and could only try to push him away.

“Alright, I’ll stop making fun of you.”

Jiang Danhe smiled and grabbed her hands, which were pressed against his chest. He carefully placed them in his palms and stroked them.

Xiaoguo’s excitement gradually dissipated after he tried to calm her down. She could tell that Jiang Danhe was not in a good mood, so she asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Jiang Danhe lowered his head and continued stroking her hands. It was obvious that something was wrong. He didn’t look fine at all.

Xiaoguo didn’t believe him. “If you don’t tell me, I’ll retract my hands and ban you from touching me,” she said in a half-threatening tone.

As she spoke, she tried to withdraw her hands.

Jiang Danhe looked up at her and didn’t say anything. Instead, he silently tightened his grip.

Although he didn’t say anything, Xiaoguo felt that it was more embarrassing than if he had said something.

He was looking at Xiaoguo with a complicated expression. His smiling eyes that were filled with love, helplessness, and tolerance, were making Xiaoguo blush again.

“What did I just say?”

Was she threatening him with the excuse that she wouldn’t let him touch her hand? Had she overestimated herself or underestimated him? Her hand was not some prized possession, and yet she dared to make that statement. It was really quite embarrassing.

Just as Xiaoguo was drowning in embarrassment, the other party spoke up.

First, he let out a helpless sigh. Then, he said, “In that case, I’ll tell you. After all, I don’t want to lose this pair of hands that I like so much.”

“… Wait a minute, did he say that liked these hands?!”

“You…” Xiaoguo thought for a long time before saying,” My hands don’t look good. They’re not soft, tender, or smooth… ”

She wasn’t a refined lady who did not have to do any chores. Whether in this life or in her previous life she had always been a hard worker. In her mother’s words, even her choice of college major required her to work with her hands. She was simply destined to work throughout her entire life.

While other girls had smooth and tender hands, her hands were marked with scars and cuts. These were caused by hot oil and kitchen knives when she learned cooking from her father. She had no shortage of calluses on her hands too.

“But I just love them.”

Jiang Danhe interrupted her unhappily. Although it was Xiaoguo who was saying those things, he didn’t want her to say anything bad about herself. To him, Xiaoguo was perfect in every way, so he didn’t want to hear anyone talk bad about her, not even herself.

“I like everything about you. Anything that’s related to you.”

Jiang Danhe looked at her sincerely, wanting to express his love for her through the window of his soul.

Without having to speak, his attitude was enough to make Xiaoguo fall head over heels for him. And to make things worse, he had added that last sentence to his speech. Now she felt like her heart completely belonged to him.

“You… are so good at sweet nothings. Did you learn it from somewhere?”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Xiaoguo was petrified. Was she an idiot? Shouldn’t she say something sweet at a time like this? For example, “I like you no matter what. Or I like everything about you.” Then, the two of them would look each other in the eyes, and so on and so forth!

Why did the atmosphere change when it came to her? The two of them were standing so close to each other that she could even see the corners of Jiang Danhe’s mouth trembling as he held back his laughter.

“Hey, no way!”

Xiaoguo lowered her head helplessly and said weakly, “I feel like laughing…”

...

“Whenever I see you, I find it hard to suppress my joy. My heart and mouth become uncontrollable.”

“…Me too!”

Xiaoguo seized the opportunity this time and did not say anything to ruin the atmosphere.

Jiang Danhe was overjoyed to hear her confession. He cherished every single confession from Xiaoguo. Every time he thought of her, his heart would feel warm and fuzzy.

Love that goes both ways is always beautiful.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming quite harmonious, the two of them involuntarily moved closer and closer to each other.

Just as their lips were about a melon seeds’ width apart, something was brewing in another corner of the house.

The two of them seemed to have forgotten that there were two little ones waiting to be carried out of the bathtub.

The water was getting cold and Zhuang Zhuang and Xiaoyi knew that they shouldn’t stay in the tub any longer. Since no one cared about them, they had to take care of themselves.

They stepped on the stool and got out of the bathtub. With each other’s help, they completed the tasks of drying themselves and getting dressed.

As soon as they came out, the cold air made the two of them shiver. Without delay, they immediately ran into the house.

...

The sound of footsteps approaching could be heard by the two adults in the house. It was only then that Xiaoguo suddenly remembered that there were still two little ones who were coming in.

Hence, she tried to sit up straight, but how could Jiang Danhe give up at this moment? He had to press on.

“It’s right on the tip of my tongue! It’s right on the tip of my tongue!!”

Xiaoguo was shocked by him and she dodged frantically. Was he crazy? The thought of being seen by the children like this made her feel so shy that she was going to lose sleep over this.

Jiang Danhe, with his thick skin, would not understand this.

Suddenly, the door opened and Xiaoguo took the opportunity to push Jiang Danhe away with all her might.

However, she accidentally exerted too much strength and pushed Jiang Danhe towards the door.

Before the two of them could react, the door was pushed open from the outside. The person who pushed it was quite strong.

Xiaoguo watched helplessly as the door frame hit Jiang Danhe’s face and bounced back.

She let out an involuntary gasp. She quickly got out of bed and put on her shoes to check on the situation. It sounded very painful.

Zhuang Zhuang also felt the impact and he looked at Xiaoyi in shock, but the relief in his eyes was obvious.

The two of them had just narrowly avoided being hit by the door that bounced back. Luckily, they dodged in time, otherwise it would have been very painful if they had been hit.
